At Brown & Company PLC (Browns), sustainability means driving operational excellence across all areas of the organisation, while ensuring that we meet our social responsibilities to the people and communities we work with. Sustainability for us is also equated to responsible resource use and environmental safeguards to minimise any impact our operations have on the environment. Browns has a presence in several sectors of the economy that contributes significantly to national growth. These include sectors such as agriculture and plantations, healthcare, tourism among others, and therefore, in recognition of its scale and impact, Browns recognises the importance of ensuring sustained and productive growth. The long history the organisation enjoys in Sri Lanka has also resulted in strong and close links with stakeholders, which Browns is committed to maintaining. Some specific initiatives undertaken during the year was in support of the agriculture and poultry sectors, with an emphasis on education so as to improve their livelihoods in the long-term.
